About this property

Serene Family Retreat among the Trees

Family and pet friendly and only 2.5 hours from the San Francisco Bay Area, this is a beautiful 4 bed/ 2 bath home, that can comfortably sleep up to ten people. In addition to the 4 inviting bedrooms that sleep 8, the primary bedroom has a twin daybed ideal for a child. The front living room has a Queen sofa bed and there is a Queen air mattress for additional sleeping in the office. If you need more space, there is also a studio above the garage with a queen bed, full bath and kitchen that can be added for $100/night.

A great location for family gatherings, the large chef kitchen has everything you need. It features two convection ovens and range top with plenty of room to make a family meal. The dining room features a large, handsome custom wood table. There are two living rooms with plenty of space for games, reading or conversations. There is one Smart TV and a wood burning fire place in the back living room.

The property is located on 1 acre in the woods with a beautiful deck that extends the entire front of the house. The front deck features a gas fire pit table, grill, swing and decorative lighting for a festive atmosphere. The backyard features a 14' enclosed trampoline, hammock, and pergola, with deer and grey foxes visiting daily. There is ample parking in the circular paved lot in front of the garage. There are exterior security cameras that will be disarmed during your stay.

It is only 15-20 mins away from the historic gold country towns of Grass Valley and Nevada City which feature modern restaurants, antique shops, festivals and newly renovated performing arts theatres. The closest airports are Sacramento, 1 hour away, and Reno, 1.75 hr away. If skiing is your preference, the Donner Lake resorts can be reached in 60 minutes for a day trip. Staying here will feel like Tahoe without the Tahoe prices and crowds.

We are excited to welcome you to our relaxing home in the woods!

Best Weekend Ever
We had the BEST time in your great home! You’re so thoughtful to stock all we could need. The extra linens, blankets, and all those games!!! We went into Nevada City and browsed. The baby gate for the front deck was perfect so we didn’t have to worry if the dog or two year old went out on the porch. Love the floor plan and all the space! The studio apartment was perfect for our daughter and her husband. Our girls live in Roseville so we may ask to come again!

Awesome house & property!!!!!
Jennifer is a wonderful host! She was very easy to communicate with and was very accommodating! The house is gorgeous!!! The lot is truly a mountain cabin! My three little grandchildren (two that just turned 5 & an almost 3) really had fun! The bunk bed room has age appropriate toys, easy living for them throughout the house, loved the trampoline and hammock, & large patio, but most of all enjoyed the visits from the deer, including a doe with twin fawns!
